Definitions

• This invention pertains generally to the preparation of novel organic polyol compounds containing halogen, their use in non-rigid polyurethane foams and more particularly to the preparation of flame-resistant, nonrigid polyurethane foams.
• polyurethane foam by reacting a polyhydroxy compound such as a polyester, a polyoxyalkylene glycol or similar polyols with an organic polyisocynate in a reaction mass containing a foaming agent.
• Polyurethane foams produced in this conventional manner have some degree of flame resistance but it has been necessary in the past to produce a foam that possesses a much higher degree of flame resistance for use in a number of systems.
• US. Pat. No. 2,577,281 teaches the use of an unsaturated alkyl ester of an aryl phosphonic acid in a foamable mixture to produce a foam that has fire-resistant properties.
• Halogen-containing esters of phosphonic acid and phosphorous acid, ammonium chloride, ammonium phosphate, chlorinated paraflins, chlorinated polyphenyls, chlorendic acid, and chlorendic anhydride have been used as additives in foamable reaction mixtures to impart flame-resistant properties to foams. Additives of these types are not chemically bonded in the urethane polymer and are lost on aging of the foam by volatilization, leaching and migration. In addition, the use of flame proofing additives may upset the surface chemistry of the foaming system and lead to severe destruction of the internal cell structures, formation of a coarse cell structure and/or collapse of the foam during manufacturing. The difliculty in successful flame proofing urethane foams as opposed to bulk materials is further complicated by the troublesome problems of proper additive distribution at gassolid interfacial surfaces due to the inherent physical movement of the composition during the foaming operation.
• a halogen-containing material incorporated in a urethane foam may reduce flammability tendencies but at the same time act as a migrating plasticizer during the curing or foaming operation or in use and effect a loss of tensile strength, compression set or load bearing properties.
• Polyurethane foams may be classified as rigid, semirigid, flexible, etc., and the art of making each particular type has been developed to a high degree.
• various components such as surfactants, blowing agents, particular isocyanates, particular polyols, etc., have been experimented with to obtain foams having special characteristics.
• special consideration 3,732,265 Patented May 8, 1973 must be given to the effect of each of the various components on the physical properties as well as the flammability characteristics.
• a reactive flame retardant in a urethane reaction can be described chemically as a compound containing one or more labile hydrogen atoms available as reactive sites.
• the compound below is an example of a reactive type flame retardant because the hydroxy groups provide the labile hydrogens needed for polymerization with an isocyanate.
• the labile hydrogen can be part of any group such as amino, hydroxyl, or carboxyl, etc., but it has to be reactive enough to react with the isocyano group of the isocyanate.
• the reactive type of flame retardant additive can combine chemically with the foam and will not evaporate from the surface or leach out when the foam is completely cured.
• not all reactive compounds can be used to produce a suitable non-rigid foam.
• the above compound has a high cross linking density and its use is limited to the rigid urethane foam systems.
• the addition of this type of a compound to a flexible system causes undesirable physical changes in the finished foam.
• a second type of flame retardant which can be used in non-rigid polyurethane systems is a compound still containing flame retardant elements but having no hydrogen available for reaction with isocyanate groups. Such a type of compound is shown below.
• This compound is an effective flame retardant; however, its effectiveness is reduced considerably over time. This is so because it tends to evaporate and leach out due to the high surface area to weight ratio of the flexible foams.
• halogenated castor oils produce flame resistant polyurethane foams but possess the disadvantage of themselves being chemically unstable at ambient temperatures or temperatures in the range of C. to 40 C.
• Use of these halogenated oils in polyurethane foam preparations is then limited since the physical properties of the compound that are important for imparting desired properties to the polyurethane foam, especially viscosity, hydroxyl number, acid number and color, change substantially on aging at ambient temperatures.
• brominated castor oil prepared in the aforementioned fashion undergoes a decrease of hyroxyl number and a parallel increase in acid number during aging.
• the use of halogenated castor oils as reactive flame retardant polyols in polyurethane foams suffers from the disadvantage of having physical properties constantly changing on aging.
• a mixture that is formulated using these halogenated oils as the polyol constituent may not be foamable since the large concentration of acid may effectively neutralize the small amount of amine and organic-metallic catalysts that are often added to catalyze the
• Another object of this invention is the production of halogenated fatty acid ester derivatives that possess stability and physical properties that remain essentially unchanged upon aging.
• the novel compounds of this invention are hydroxy and halogen containing ether adducts derived from hydroxy higher fatty acid esters of low molecular weight polyols and haloepoxides. These compounds are produced by reacting a polyhydric alcohol ester of a hydroxy fatty acid (hereinafter referred to as the polyol ester reactant) with a haloepoxide in the presence of an acidic catalyst to produce an adduct having a controlled degree of functionality.
• an epihalohydrin is added to a reaction mass comprising a mixture of the polyol ester and catalyst so as to get increased amounts of polymerization of the epihalohydrin on the ester reactant.
• the adducts of this invention are multi-functional polyols and are used as the major building blocks in various urethane foams.
• the adducts can be prepared from inexpensive raw materials and can be tailor-made to suit desired molecular weight, viscosity and hydroxyl number conditions.
• the hydroxyl value range is about 100-300 and flexible foams have a requirement of between about 25 and 100.
• the adducts of this invention will possess a molecular weight of between about 1500 and about 7500 with a 2500 to 3500 range preferred.
• the adducts will possess a hydroxy value range of between about 25 and about 300 with a preferred range of about 30 to 100.
• the hydroxyl and halogen containing ether adducts of this invention are products obtained by reacting aliphatic haloepoxides with a particular polyol ester to produce polyethers containing chemically combined hydroxyl and halogen in the polyether unit of the molecule.
• the reaction is carried out at temperatures between about 30 C. and 150 C. in the presence of an acidic catalyst, preferably of the Lewis acid type.
• Typical catalysts are BF SnCl AlCl TiCl etc., used in amounts of about .0l% to 3% based on the weight of the polyol ester reactant.
• the reaction time to prepare the adduct will vary depending upon the temperature of the reaction, the reactants employed, and the amounts thereof. Generally, however, a reaction time in the range of between about 30 minutes and hours is utilized.
• the polyol ester reactant which is reacted with the haloepoxide can be saturated or unsaturated, non-substituted or substituted with non-interfering groups, and is a higher fatty hydroxy acid ester of a polyhydric alcohol wherein the alcohol portions contain about 26 carbons and about 26 hydroxyl groups.
• higher fatty hydroxy acids refers to fatty acids either saturated or unsaturated, straight or branched chained of about 8 to about 30 carbon atoms (10 to 22 carbon atoms preferred) and contain one or more hydroxyl groups per acyl radical of the ester molecule. Included broadly are hydroxy containing triglycerides, diglycerides and monoglycerides.
• Castor oil is an example of a naturally occurring unsaturated polyol ester while the ethylene glycol ester of ricinoleic acid is an example of a synthetic, unsaturated polyol ester.
• Saturated polyol ester reactants are typified by the 9-hydroxy stearic acid ester of pentaerythritol.
• Suitable low molecular weight polyhydric alcohols that make up the polyol ester reactant are selected from the glycols, triols, tetraols, pentols and hexols and are represented by ethylene glycol, glycerol, pentaerythritol, sorbitol, etc. Since these low molecular weight polyhydric alcohols are multi-functional, it is possible that the hydroxyl function be present on only some of the acyl radicals making up the polyol ester reactant.
• the aliphatic haloepoxides that can be reacted with the polyol ester reactant to form the hydroxy and halogen containing ether derivatives of the hydroxyl fatty acid esters are those saturated or unsaturated aliphatic C C straight or branched chain haloepoxides.
• the halogen constituent of the epoxide is preferably a chlorine or bromine atom but iodine and fluorine are contemplated. Examples of preferred reactants are epichlorohydrin and epibromohydrin.
• the epoxide molecule if desired, can be substituted with more than one halogen, e.g., 1,4-dichloro- 2,3-epoxy0ctane.
• haloepoxide when preparing adducts for flexible foams at least about 7 and up to about 100 moles of haloepoxide is reacted with each mole of polyol ester reactant. It is preferred, however, to react about 22.5 to 20 moles of haloepoxide per each hydroxy function in the polyol ester reactant.
• epichlorohydrin about 7 to about 60 moles of epichlorohydrin are reacted with 1 mole of castor oil (22.5 to about 20 mols of epichlorohydrin per each hydroxy function).
• the polyols are the major building blocks of the urethane foams and are generaly the ingredient upon which the behavior and properties of the foam depend.
• the chemical characteristics of the polyols necessary to achieve a foam with the right physical characteristics have been defined quite carefully.
• An ideal polyol for producing flexible urethane foam has a hydroxy value of approximately 56 and molecular weight of approximately 3,000. With these values in mind, it is possible by using the instant invention to design a compound having the desirable characteristics and yet contain a large amount of flame retardant elements. For example, epichlorohydrin can be reached with castor oil in the presence of BF as a catalyst.
• This product basically is a triglyceride which has had its glyceride chains lengthened first by reacting epoxide groups with hydroxyls of the ricinoleic acyl radical, then by subsequent polymerization of epochlorohydrin onto the new hydroxyl groups.
• the molecular Weight can be controlled simply by the amount of epichlorohydrin added to the product. Pictured below is this type of polymerization.
• nmp necessary to make an average molecular weight of 3000 gms. is approximately equal to 21.
• a slight modification of this product is to use epibromohydrin with castor oil in exactly the same way as epichlorohydrin.
• the most suitable product of this type for use in flexible foams is pictured below.
• the sum of grs necessary to make an average molecular weight of 3000 is approximately equal to 15.

• x is an integer of 0 to 3
• y is an integer of 0 to 7
• n is an integer of 2.5 to 50
• m is an integer of 1 to 6
• X is halogen and usually Cl, Br or I and the sum of x, y and z are such that an acyl radical contains at least about 8 carbon atoms.
• the products of this invention combine the advantages of the previously mentioned flame retardants.
• the novel compositions of matter do not leach out or evaporate like the non-reactant polyols, nor do they impart physical changes like other reactive flame retardants. They give a very high degree of flame retardancy to the flexible foam.
• a still further advantage is that the compounds of this invention have multiple functionality and that the compounds are quite versatile in forming new compounds of desired characteristics.
• the unsaturation of the triglyceride provides a means for controlling the halogen content of the molecule. This fact will be emphasized later in the disclosure.
• These products can be treated with short chain aliphatic oxides, such as ethylene, propylene or butylene oxide, to increase the molecular weight.
• treatment of the polyol adduct with an alkylene oxide converts the secondary alcohol function to a primary alcohol function which is much more reactive.
• the unsaturated portion of the triglyceride can be most effectively halogenated by contacting the unsaturated polyol adduct with free halogen (usually chlorine or bromine).
• free halogen usually chlorine or bromine.
• a suitable solvent can be used, if necessary, to moderate the reaction.
• reaction mixture temperatures should be kept below about 30 C. In many cases, it may be found best to maintain the reaction at low temperatures, i.e., in the range of about a -10 C. to about 20 C. during the addition of the halogen and then Warm the mixture to a higher temperature to assure complete reaction.
• suitable solvents for the halogenation reaction include petroleum ether, hexane, benzene, toluene, xylene, or two phase systems using solvent and water or water-alcohol mixtures.
• Halogenation of the olefinic double bond results in halogen atoms on adjacent carbons. Since the halogen reacts substantially with the unsaturated bonds, it is generally only necessary to add a stoichiometric amount of halogen if one desires to obtain an essentially pure prodduct. In many cases, it has been found that little or no side reactions occur so that a sufficiently pure product will be obtained by simply stripping off the solvent from the final reaction mixture, preferably used in sub-atmos- 7 pheric pressure as necessary to avoid thermo decomposition of the product. If an extra pure product is required, it can easily be obtained by extraction, distillation, or other known means for purifying organic compounds.
• the unsaturated portion of the glyceride adducts can be halogenated so that about 99-50% of the unsaturation remains. Accordingly, it can be seen that one can add bromine and cut back on the amount of epibromohydrin used to form the adduct.
• brominated castor oil has a hydroxyl value of about 100 and a bromine content of about 31%.
• Brominated castor oil by itself, however, has very little utility in urethane foam systems because of its instability. It darkens and builds up acid on storage, especially at higher temperatures.
• epibromohydrin and bromine used, one can make, as taught by this invention, a product that has the same hydroxyl and bromine content as brominated castor oil, but is not unstable, has a low acid value and good color. Further, the product retains these desirable features over long periods of time.
• an outstanding use for the novel polyol adducts of this invention is in providing flame resistance for isocyanate or polyurethane foams.
• the term flame-resistant is used to characterize a material which does not burn readily.
• the polyol adducts may be used individually or in various mixtures and combinations with other hydroxy containing reactants. Due to the fact that these compositions possess multiple hydroxy groups, the compounds actually react with the isocyanates in the formation of urethane foams to produce flame resistant copolymers. In this respect, they may replace some or all of the polyols generally used in such formulations.
• polyurethane foams are well known, and a detailed description of such processes is not warranted here. Briefly, however, the process involves the reaction of an isocyanate and another polyfunctional compound which contains an active hydrogen, i.e., hydroxy, carboxyl, amino groups, etc.
• the invention contemplates either a prepolymer process or a one-shot process for making polyurethane foams.
• the polyol adduct with or without another polyhydric polyalkylene ether is heated under substantially anhydrous conditions with an excess of organic polyisocyanate to form a cyano terminated adduct.

It is preferred that these low molecular alcohols be at least difunctional and preferably tri or tetrafunctional and they can comprise from 5% to 75% by weight of the total polyol mixture. It is understood that the amount of polyoxyalkylene glycol or monomeric alcohol used in a polyol mixture, along with the adducts of this invention will depend upon the physical properties and degree of flame retardancy desired in the polyurethane foam.
• Organic di or polyisocyanate can be used as the isocyanate component for the preparation of polyurethane foams.
